No I’m saying if official videos can go up on YouTube why can’t the albums become available on more platforms than Tidal? That’s why I wondered if there’s legal reasons this stuff is only on Tidal right now.
Yea I think they are still trying to work that out. Does anyone know how expensive it would be to put his albums back into print? Or should it be slowly done

Comerica has to go to the siblings for any contract over 2 million, I think this would reach that number. I would say we're waiting. Not me, I have multiple copies of most of the albums razz

I am confused by what you are asking.

I thought you said Ps music was only on Tidal but you said above no albums have been pulled from Spotify or Apple?

I only have P's CDs and Amazon streaming.

WB albums were put on streaming services other than Tidal. Anything after Come but before AOA is only available on Tidal (and some of those albums might even be missing from Tidal). As far as I know none of the sibs have asked for the WB albums to be removed from non-Tidal streaming sites. And videos for non-WB released music are going up on the official YouTube channel (which appears to be maintained by WB). So I ask what is the holdup in getting the rest of his work on Spotify & Apple Music? Is Tidal preventing it right now?

I think most of it is held by the estate. Even if Tidal was resolved. They are still monetizing the catalogue. A lot of this is seems to be the same as when he passed. Except for Tidal tossing most of his stuff afterwards.

Idea for New Releases From The Estate:

Release Prince's classic albums as extended sets and mini-events.

For example, release DIRTY MIND in late 2018 w/:

1) CD1: Remaster of the original 8-track LP, available as download, streaming, CD, and

limited edition LP

2) CD2: All Dirty Mind-era b-sides and unreleased tracks, all re-mastered too.

For example, the songs:

- Gotta Stop Messin' About

- Lisa

- American Jam

- Broken

- Big Brass Bed

- When The Shit Comes Down

- Eros

- Plastic Love Affair

- Bulgaria

3) CD3: Prince Live From The Ritz: The Dirty Mind Tour: New York, New York, March 22nd, 1981

The whole concert w/ the audio cleaned-up, re-mastered, etc.

Also, around the release of the albums - commission a hot, young artist to peform a cover from DIRTY MIND. For example, St. Vincent doing a version of the title song, etc. Have the artist perform the song and release a video for mass consumption.

Well, Udo apparently has some questions about this article here. Can you provide some answers lol

You could also give us some of the finer figures that make up that "almost $100 million in less than nine months". You know smile Since you put it out there and all.

If the official Musicology music video can go up on YouTube why isn’t the album available for sale in iTunes or streaming on Spotify or Apple Music? Why the f—k is it so difficult to get access to albums between Come and AOA outside of Tidal (and in the case of TGE anywhere at all)? Can they at least figure out how to make Musicology and 3121 available? I’d throw in LotusFlow3r too but not sure if he partnered with a major label on that one or not.


some of these albums can be found on ebay


But are the eBay copies legit or are they bootlegs?

.

Easy:

- Londell, did you pay back the UMG commission yet?

- If not: what is the status of the 'discussion' according to yourself?

- What is the strategy you follow for the heirs that chose to hire you as adviser?

- How can we observe that this is in fact the strategy you implement and how does this benefit the heirs or even the estate?

- Why can you serve them when Prince `let you go`?

- Mentioning 100 million is useless as it is a one dimensional number; no cost of production or other overhead such as your cost is mentioned at all; so what percentage of that goed to 'representation' such as you and similar types provide? What income was one-time (i.e. stuff was sold and will not return, cannot be reused, etc) and how will that benefit the Estate in the longer run?

etc, etc

.

We could also ask if Lonny counts the UMG millions towards the 100M USD number.

(he and Mike earned it and the Estate returned it, so I guess so)

So the number is likely inflated.

Truth is that nothing is going forward w.r.t. monetizing on non-WB materials AFAWK.

Also, because of the botched UMG deal, the price will be lower for the next party showing interest.

Thanks Lonny!

.

When can we expect his book?

.

Where does his 'índustry expertise' really count if it didn't in the UMG deal's case?

She further claims that a will exists naming her sole legal heir of the late Prince Rogers Nelson, but has yet to produce it. She did however, produce an alternative document as proof that Prince sacrificed his life for her. It contains the lyrics to “I Would Die for U.” (Elliott says she co-wrote that one.)

We need to know why your homeboy is making a jackass out of himself with his lies. The attorney who reviewed his work certainly did not find his work to have done much of anything for the estate. It is in writing for all the works to see it is just that he got those 3 chowder heads to nod along with his bull.
